Holi the festival of colour and happiness is around the corner and I hope you guys are excited in the same way like I am. This post is on few skin and hair care tips for Holi and DIY’s which you can use this Holi, and enjoy to the core even without thinking twice.

Tips: before moving out

Apply coconut oil to the hair to prevent damage from the colors. Try various style to cover your hair. You can tie a bun or you can cover your hair with the old scarf.

Apply moisturizer all over the body that will prevent you from the harsh chemical based colours.

Apply the thick coat of Vaseline around your ears so that you don’t look like a pink monster after Holi.

Apply a generous amount of sunscreen as you will be in the sun for the full day (so it will help you from tanning).

Not to forget your lips as they might become dry on that sunny day with the harsh color over it so try to keep them moisturized as well.

Keep drinking water which will keep your body hydrated.

If you have any open wound or cuts, cover them properly before handing for Holi.

Apply dark color nail paint which will prevent the colors from settling in.

Try to wear fully covered clothes so that your skin is covered properly.

Try not to wear your contact lens instead go with glasses.

Tips: While playing Holi

Stick to organic colors rather than going for chemical ones. Nowadays we have various types of organic colors in the local markets too.

If you feel any sensation or itchiness then wash off the color immediately as it might result in rash or allergy.

Alcohol dehydrates the body so keep drinking water also and try to consume less alcoholic drinks.

Brush off excess color from the hair and body before heading for shower.

Try to use mild soap or shampoo.
